I'm hoping to be at the Under 21 Qualifier at Plymouth on the 28th April. Can anyone tell me if there is parking on the grass at the track or if the Coypool Park and Ride car park is the best option.

Parking is available at the track, £2 is charged I would say this is your best option

Looking at Plymouth's May averages & Klindt's current ave, when Klindt completes 6 matches, Plymouth would have 8.68 points available to replace Cluff!

I don't know if there's any heat leaders out there available, but could certainly strengthen the team. That figure will change depending on how many Klindt scores in his next 3 matches, question is can Cluff improve enough to keep his team spot?

Does make me wonder why season after season Plymouth ship in an expensive gamble. Baek, Turner, Goret all came in with debateable pedigree and Cluff is little different. There has to come a point in time where taking expensive gambles on riders with blind hope has to be replaced with some sensible team building.

You are in no position to say whether a rider is an expensive gamble or not as you have no idea how much they are costing or what deal they are getting, so unless you have inside knowledge best to keep quiet.

I know that Visa's, accommodation and the basics that go with it are higher than an equivalent Brit whos scoring next to no points. There might have been a few instances of greasing the wheels for a place over the years but don't think we are quite in the position of pay for rides yet.

Because that is the way Mark builds his team. Go for the big(ish) name to attract people's attention and then make the rest up with whoever or whatever is available.  None of his teams have ever been equal across the averages.

I certainly get that Plymouth are up against it compared to some tracks for signings and aren't alone on the hit and hope approach it just seems a little more consistent. That said if Cluff comes good then it all becomes worthwhile but usually the early signs are more promising.

If Cluff is on a 5, they could have signed Ablitt? Or did he turn them down as well? I suppose SE to SW would take a while!

Crikey id noticed he was a 5.00 i thought he was a 4. Initially thinking Coles/Smith were better options but when you consider Ablitt/Morley/Hagon were alternatives it makes you think.
